In-Person Sessions in Bay Area of California

 

🆘Have you ever tried to communicate your heart to someone and your efforts are shot down? Maybe you felt that you were the guilty party at the end of it all. It's possible that you were a victim of gaslighting.

Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or group, through the use of deception, false information, and the withholding of facts, attempts to make another person doubt their own reality.

Gaslighting can occur in any kind of relationship but is most commonly seen in intimate relationships such as romantic partnerships and family dynamics. Sometimes gaslighting is used as a form of self-preservation by someone who may be feeling insecure in the relationship.

It is often done in subtle ways that are hard to recognize and even harder to prove. Victims of gaslighting may feel confused and frustrated as they struggle to make sense of their reality while the abuser continues to deny or distort the truth. The effects of gaslighting can be long-lasting and damaging if left unchecked.

If you find that you are a victim of gaslighting, having a safe space to go and process, can be really helpful. Life By Design Therapy is offering in-person sessions to those who live in the Bay Area of California. Head to the link in our bio to schedule a free phone consultation to learn more.
